Product description
Order the Agate semi-precious stone beads from the EM ART online store. Strings of agate beads can be a great addition to your jewelry collection!
• Agate is formed from layers of silicon dioxide that fill the cavities in other minerals. The layers form in stages, often with high contrast, as riverbeds, ash waters, or other environmental elements change over time. As they fill gaps in (mostly) volcanic rock, agates usually form in rounded nodules or protrusions.
• Each strand of agate beads is unique, as it is created by filling various shaped cavities. When the cavity is filled, a full agate is formed. Agate impresses with its incredible variety of color combinations and patterns. Its surprising natural designs have inspired creative ideas in people from ancient times to the present day. It is widely used in the jewelry arts. Amulets, necklaces, bracelets, and rings made of agate can bring many benefits to their owners.
• When found, most agates are visually dull and require cutting or polishing to reveal their internal color bands. The commercial value of natural stones (stones without any enhancements) is often determined by the fineness, sharpness, and bold color contrasts within the bands.
• In the past, agate was carved into cameos, using the natural color differences in the bands to create profiles and scenes. Other uses outside of jewelry include handles, boxes, and other items for personal hygiene and home decor.
